Auroral <i>E</i>-region electron density gradients measured

In the theory of <i>E</i>-region plasma instabilities, the ambient electric field and electron density gradient are both included in the same dispersion relation as the key parameters that provide the energy for the generation and growth of electrostatic plasma waves. While there exi...
